Suggestion: Allow handle program to initiate conversations #62

Open Shulyaka opened 9 months ago

Currently the pipeline only starts the handle program after user speech. However there are use cases such as:

  1. Setting up a reminder
  2. Timer
  3. Multiple responses from the handle program for a single request, such as "doing it now, please hold on...", then "Done."

I suggest two options:

  1. Start the handle program in advance and keep it running
  2. Add a new domain (i.e. agent) that is able to initiate conversations on behalf of the user, but I am not sure about the communication protocol.
